As part of the New York State Workers'
Compensation Board's ongoing effort to improve services, increase
efficiency and limit costs, a new centralized mailing address for all
mail related to workers' compensation claims has been established. This
PO address is in close proximity to the Board's mail scanning facility
in Binghamton, NY.
To help the Board improve its efficiency,
effective September 8, 2003, all insurers, attorneys, licensed
representatives and health care providers involved with claims being
processed in New York City, Long Island, Westchester, Rockland, Putnam
or Orange Counties must direct all claims-related mail correspondence to
the following centralized address. Failure to do so could result in
unnecessary delays in processing of claims
